OPC UA server

System overview
The "DC-UPS software" component is essential for integrating the OPC server. It comprises
two subcomponents:
1. SitopUPSManagerService: Responsible for communication with the DC UPS main board
and data management.
2. SitopUPSManager: Interface between the user and the DC UPS system.
The SitopUPSManagerService component is suitable for two reasons when it comes to
integrating the OPC server:
1. As the component is responsible for data management, the OPC server does not require
any external interface in order to access data.
2. The component is executed as Windows service, and is therefore run independently of
users logged on to the system.
The structure of the DC-UPS software component - and the expansion to include the OPC
server component (in green) are shown in the following diagram:

This results in the following system overview:
● The DC-UPS software at the PC communicates via USB and the USB board - or via
Ethernet and the ProfiNet board with the DC UPS main board.
● OPC clients can connect with the OPC server in the DC-UPS software via Ethernet and a
binary protocol or SOAP.
